- Oh, thank you.

That's probably the reason why

- no one goes to the movies anymore.

- Right, right!

- Well, thanks very much.

- Thank you so much.

- You're a good customer.

- Thanks very much.

Take care.

- You really want to

watch "life in orange?"

- Yeah, I want to find out

what the masses are watching.

- Wow, join the herd.

You make it sound so dumb.

- Well, this is the

new normalcy...

The new normality I should say.

Each episode is tuning us out

just a little bit more.

It's what aldous huxley

talked about in brave new world.

- It's also what

Neil postman wrote about.

I don't know who that is.

- It doesn't matter if

we're getting dumber,

because the singularity

will fix everything.

- Ron, I don't care. I just want to watch the show.

- Okay.

Is there full frontal in this?

Les, you're going to be late.

Can I make you breakfast?

Okay, so operation ajax!

Isn't that a soap?

Yeah well, it is a soap, yes.

But in terms of

what happened here,

I wouldn't say there

was anything clean

about what America did, okay.

But if you consider

what we did,

which was pretty lousy,

let's imagine a hypothetical

where it didn't happen.

And we didn't go in and get rid

of the prime minister of Iran

in the 1950s.

How might that have

that affected

middle eastern relations today?

How might the middle east

view us today,

- well, it was in our best

interest to do it though,

wasn't it?

Economically, it was in our

best interest to take their oil.

All Iran wanted to do

was nationalize their oil,

so what was in

their best interest?

That's what people

don't talk about.

Let's say you got a million

dollars under your bed, okay.

It's in my best interest

to take that million dollars

if I want it,

because I can do a

lot with that money.

But it's not in

your best interest.

Rain, come on, man.

Put the cell phone away.

I'm tired of dealing with this,

every time we're talking.

Yo, this sh*t doesn't matter.

All of this matters.

Empathy matters, okay.

- Give me the cell phone!

- Yo, f*** you, Mr. Wells.

Ooh.

Nicki.

That's nice.

- Chastity stock is up

4 dollars.

I told you, right?

I haven't steered you wrong yet.

- I wonder how high

it's going to go

when that first consumer

rocket goes into orbit.

- It's going to go right up

into the stratosphere.

Let's hope so!

- Sorry, Barry.

Let me take this call.

This guy's not going to

leave me alone otherwise.

F*** face, I told

you not to contact me.

- You're a sick

son-of-a-b*tch, les.

- Oh, I'm a sick son-of-a-b*tch?

How so?

- Don't play dumb.

You know what I'm talking about.

I'm with a client, Ron.

- I thought it was fake at

first, but it's f***ing real.

- What's real?

What are you talking about?

The finger, les.

Give me a break.

The finger, man!

- The finger?

Which one?

- Where did you get it?

One of your mafia connections?

- You told me you had ties

to the sicilian mafia family.

- What?

You think because I'm Italian

that I'm connected to the mob?

What the f*** is that?

You said so yourself.

- I was just trying to

scare you, you imbecile.

- Well, I don't scare

so easily, les.

I once watched "the exorcist,"

by myself,

in the dark,

all the way through.

I have no idea what

you're talking about so,

- you're lucky i

don't go to the police.

Go to the police, Ron.

Whatever it is

you're talking about...

I don't need the police, okay?

Let me tell you something,

you might be Italian,

but I'm turkish and turkish

people are f***ing crazy.

So watch your f***ing back.

F*** you.

Hello?

Mother f***.

Who is that?

Hello?

Who is that?

Honey?

- Ron?

- Hey. You home?

- Oh, my god.

What are you doing?

- Hey babe.

- What is going on in here?

I thought there was a robber.

- I've got this little

thyroid thing in my thigh.

I was trying to get it out.

My leg was clotting

or something.

- Ron, you need to get

this under control.

You need to see the

trainer I'm working with.

He said he's going to

give you two free sessions.

- I know but you

married me for my...

- No, I married you because

you were a hot wrestler.

I can still do it, you know.

Come on.

Can you go like that?

I'll f***ing barnyard

you right now.

Barnyard you.

Do you want me to?

What?

I was out with a client.

You're avoiding me, les.

What do you want me to say?

Just talk to me.

It's like we're strangers

all of the sudden.

- All I want to say

are hurtful things, Kate.

I just keep seeing your

hands on his cock

and his fingers inside of you.

- My hand was never

on his cock.

- Yeah, well that's

what I keep seeing.

I keep seeing his tongue

in your mouth

and his hands all over you.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, you keep saying that.

- Let's go.

Come on.

Gioia, come on!

We need to go!

- Maybe you're doing

something to provoke her.

You know she can

be very sensitive.

I'm just doing my job, okay.

Rain's behavior is

becoming more anti-social.

It's interfering with class.

- Mrs. Bennet, is anything

happening at home

that might be

causing rain distress?

- Well, her grandfather

is very sick

- oh, that's sad to hear.

- Diabetes is a serious illness.

They had to amputate one

of his legs below the knee.

They may have to

amputate the other leg soon.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

- Yeah, that's awful.

- But this doesn't give

cause for her to act out

the way you say

that she is.

Normally, she's very

respectful towards authority.

- Yeah, but she's

extremely hostile to me.

Maybe she's defending herself.

- No.

She's antagonistic.

She's aggressive.

It's completely unprovoked.

- Well, her father was

from the middle east

and her father was

very emotionally abusive.

- So, he's no longer

in the picture?

- No. He sells shish kabobs

in sabzevar.

- Just because he was

emotionally abusive,

doesn't mean that all

middle eastern men

- just because all middle

eastern men aren't abusive

doesn't mean that you're not.

- You can't blame everything

on the middle east.

- I agree with Ron.

And besides, Ron's American.

- Yeah, but my family

is from Turkey.

- And they have very

backwards policies

towards their women there.

Turkey has a very western

attitude towards women.

They expect for their

women to be obsequious there.

- Turkish women, obsequious?

- Yeah.

- No. If anything turkish

women are bossy and bitchy.

Bossy and bitchy?

I don't mean it like that.

Do you see what I mean?

- Strong.

Turkish women are very strong.

- No, you're trying

to cover it up.

- I'm mainly referring

to my mother.

My mother was bossy

and bitchy.

- She still is.

- Ron, Ron, Ron, chill.

- I can't be in the room

with this man.

- Mrs. Bennet,

Mrs. Bennet, listen.

We care greatly

about rain's education.

We feel she's a

very bright girl.

- She's absolutely

a bright girl.

I don't like him.

I don't like him either,

but that's another story.

So how long has rain's

father been out of the picture?

- I became a teacher so
